Enhancing Value Task Force

Getting the Most out of UK Research

Slide2
Task Force Executive Group

Steering Group Co-chairs:

Mr David Eyton

, Head of Technology, BPProfessor Shirley Pearce, Former Vice-Chancellor, Loughborough University

Working Group Co-chairs:Professor Michael Caine, Associate Dean (Enterprise), Loughborough UniversityDr Robert Sorrell, VP Public Partnerships, BPStrategic Partners:

Dr David Docherty, Chief Executive, CIHEProfessor Alan Hughes, Director, CBR and UK~IRCAssisted By:Sally Devine, Task Force Coordinator, CIHEChristopher Ganje, Policy Advisor, BPwww.cihe.co.uk/enhancingvalue

Slide3
The Task

The group set out to:

Place UK public and private sector research in an EU and global context.

Explore the similarities and synergies between public and private sector research.

Isolate the characteristics of different sectors and explore appropriate sectoral systems of innovation. Identify and prioritise a small set of key actions for change that will enhance the value of publicly-funded research and collaboration with business.

Slide4
How does UK Compare…?

£26.4bn invested in UK R&D

in 2009…… Has that changed over time and what are other countries doing?Where does it come from?

Slide5
GERD

: gross domestic expenditure on R&D, 1999 and 2009 (as % of GDP)

Taken from Task Force Report:

Slide6
R&D funds from abroad, 2009

(as a % of business enterprise R&D)

Taken from Task Force Report:

, by Alan Hughes and Andrea MinaSource: OECD

Slide7
Size of firms matters…

34% of R&D (BERD) contributed by the 10 largest firms Only 3.5% contributed by

independent small and medium sized firms (not subsidiaries)So, major corporations and their supply chains are important parts of the innovation system

Slide8
Large multinationals matter to us…

How do we keep them here?How do we compare with other countries in terms of government incentives and should we do more?

Slide9
Direct government funding of business R&D and tax incentives for R&D, 2009

(as a % of GDP)

Slide10
First report, landscape summary:

There is a ‘funding gap’ compared to international competitorsR&D is concentrated in the large firms and their supply chains and subsidiaries

UK innovation system is ‘open’ and vulnerable.

Slide11
What is the impact of this expenditure?

Not a simple question

Rate of Return/Return on investment ROI ok for some eg

pharma (10-25% over 10-25yrs) but too simple generally…..heroic!Exploitation of research dependent on businesses having absorptive capacity and investment

Classic systems problemHow do we measure ‘pathways to impact’ and what parts can we influence most?

Slide12

Pathways to impact

Enhancing Impact, The Value of Public Sector R&D, by Alan Hughes and Ben Martin

Slide13
Constraints on Interactions: Businesses and Academics engaged with private sector only (% of respondents)

Slide14
Universities are

doing more

Income from industry growingKTP scheme successfulPartnerships growingSpin outs growing…….(basic research)

Relationships matterBut industry does experience frustration with HE… And vice versa?

Slide15
Industry comments….

University rules and regulations e.g. confidentialityIP……

Technology Transfer Office rulesPromotion criteriaIndustry is source of ideas not just university But businesses need to change too…

Investment in interaction with universitiesManagement of the relationship

Slide16
Sector variations?

Do different industry sectors have different needs and are the innovation pathways in different?

Understand the heterogeneity…….

Slide17
Users of Universities as a Source of Knowledge rating them as highly important by industrial sector

Slide18
Can we improve our understanding of differences between sectors?

CDIT

ConstructionEnergyPharmaceuticals and Biotech The research team carried out 71 interviews with top-level sources from both large and small firms, universities, government/regulators and charities.

Recommendations:

Final report out 10th December

Small number of recommendations focusing on:Maintaining quality of research baseKeeping large multinationals here in UK for R&DUnderstanding sector differencesStrengthening university business interactions

Business R&D by size class of firms, 2009 (as a % of total BERD)

Slide24
How do we compare with USA

Cosh and Hughes 2010 survey 3,500 UK and USA businesses in 2004/5

What sources of knowledge do you use for innovation?How do you value universities as sources of knowledge?

Slide25
Frequency of Use by Sources of Knowledge UK and US
